INTERLOCKING
19
Definition
noun
- (rail transport) An arrangement of signal apparatus that prevents conflicting movements through a set of intersecting tracks, such as junctions or crossings."There was still no attempt to arrange interlocking between points and signals; that came later. In 1856, John Saxby carried out the principle involved in interlocking—the prevention of signals and points being in conflicting positions—and erected apparatus to do that at this same junction."
